More than mere amplification

Plug into any amp from this new collection and you’ll be amazed by the levels of responsiveness, feel, nuance and sound. We worked hand in hand again with MESA to meticulously recreate every circuit and control feature of each model. And we nailed it.

You’ll quickly understand why MESA has always referred to their amplifiers as “instruments” … because they are, lifting your verve and performance to new heights.

Sound like a rock god

MESA/Boogie amplifiers have provided their signature tone to a wide variety of players from around the world. This includes iconic pioneers like Carlos Santana, Pete Townshend, Keith Richards, Larry Carlton, Robben Ford, Al Di Meola and more modern heroes like Metallica’s James Hetfield and Kirk Hammett, Dream Theater’s John Petrucci, Foo Fighters’ Dave Grohl, Lamb of God’s Mark Morton and Will Adler, Johnny A, Andy Timmons… the MESA list of guitar greats with noteworthy tone goes on and on.

Add MESA/Boogie 2 to your collection and you'll tap into the thick, rich sound that so long ago prompted Carlos Santana to make his “mark” on the brand by famously saying, "Man, this thing really boogies!"
